About
For flipturn, success didn't arrive overnight. The band, comprised of Dillon Basse (lead vocal
guitar), Tristan Duncan (lead guitar), Mitch Fountain (synth, guitar), Madeline Jarman (bass), and
Devon VonBalson (drums), grew steadily with every gig, from college house shows to festival
appearances at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits, to a late night TV performance
on Jimmy Kimmel Live - earning the Jacksonville, Florida-based band an international
reputation as an indie rock powerhouse. By the time flipturn released their debut album,
Shadowglow, they'd become genuine road warriors while still in their mid-20s, supporting the
record with a nonstop string of tour dates. That dizzying experience inspired the band’s second
release, Burnout Days. Caught halfway between 21st century indie rock, New Wave-inspired
nostalgia, and rhythmic alt-pop, Burnout Days finds the beauty that exists between five friends,
even in times of burnout.
